Knitting Pictures!

[bk_forever]

Well, it will be knitting pictures (I hope) if I can figure out how to insert images! Wish me luck!

Okay, some people have been showing interest in seeing some of the things I've knitted. I'm still clearing out my room to have the ceiling fixed, and today was Emptying The Wardrobe day, so I decided to photograph a few of the woolies I knitted. The photos aren't great, the light was bad as it's been pouring rain all day, and I put things on a flat box on the floor to photograph them as the bed's been dismantled and shifted to the box room, but I hope they're passable.

These four were all knitted from the same basic pattern, but I used different cable stitches for each one - I love cabling and thought they turned out quite well.












So hopefully, here they are! Hope you like!

Nice indeed. I really like the purplish one.

Now, you know, you must post these to Rav.

I will, I will, honest, just as soon as I have the time and energy to get back over there. Everything's still in chaos here, the insurance company has dithered between underpinning my ceiling or completely replacing it - replacement has been decided on finally, so I've had to empty all my fitted cupboards as well as shifting everything else from there. I'll move the final bits, including the plants on the windowsill tomorrow, then we'll see when they start the work!

Anyway, glad you like them - I had a lot of fun choosing different cables for each one, and I was pleased with how well they turned out. I really don't have a favourite - I picked up the yarn years ago, quite cheaply, but there wasn't enough of any of the colours for a long-sleeved sweater so I made these instead. They're generously sized, so I can wear them over a jumper in winter for an extra layer - could have used them during the really cold weather, but they were stuffed at the back of the wardrobe. When I put things back in my room, I'm going to reorganise where I store things so I can actually get at them!

I've taken photos of a few more, which might make it to my journal (and eventually Ravelry) when I can find the time!

Thanks for commenting =D
